Frankly I don't beleive in God or the Devil, so i'm rarely disappointed.
What tastes bad is not from Jehovah
I've got to disagree with a statement like this! Since He supposedly created all things, he must be responsible for Brussels Sprouts.
i'm a recent departee and am now re-evaluating all my previous beliefs and there's none more fundamental.
however, i'm not sure where to start: i'm sure i don't need to say there's an enormous amount of nonsense out there.
frankly, in spite of their other stupid teachings, i am considering reviewing again the articles in wt library as i think they do try to sincerely prove the existence of god.

Ask A Good Question" OK, here goesWHY!?!
Because.
"happy are those concious of their spiritual need?
" do you still have a desire for spiritual things?
Maybe Nosferatu, you've just discovered that you like your own cooking and no longer require mass produced soyburgers and sawdust fries masquerading as filet mignon.
hey everybody, i don't know if this has been talked about before, but here is an amazing case that is documented and took place in the seventies.
is it a spirit?
is it our mind?
Actually Freddy I did tape it but in my condition I forgot where I put the tape. But that doesn't mean it didn't happen.

Personally i think it's all a bunch of crap. Give me enough beers and I can see the Beatles start moving on my poster: if I put on a Beatles cd I can actually see a Beatles concert in my living room. Does this mean it actually happened?
"the bible is the inspired word of god.
"holy spirit came upon men who then wrote the various books that make up the bible.
what was the criteria for determining if a given piece of writing, such as the books matthew, mark, luke, john and acts, or letters, such as the ones written by paul, were inspired?
here's a gem that didn't make it into the bible as composed at the council of Nicea; it's from the Gospel of Thomas:
Jesus said, "the kingdom of the father is like a certain woman who was carrying a jar full of meal. While she was walking on the road...the handle of the jar broke and the meal emptied out behind her on the road. She did not realize it; she had noticed no accident. When she reached her house, she set the jar down and found it empty." (saying 97)
If they'd included all the gospels about Jesus' life that were floating around in 325, people back then would have realized it was all a bunch of crap. Instead, they culled the information; keeping only what books aided in keeping the people in subjection to their new Christian Emporer and the Bishop of Rome. We've been duped by the conspiricy ever since.

Simwitness:
You beat me to it. It is interesting to note that following the council of 325, all Gospels that didn't coincide with their preconceived notions of christiabity were sought out and destroyed.
i was wondering the other day just how long armageddon was supposed to last?
how long does it take to kill billions of people?
hours or days or weeks?
*visualizes Russell,Rutherford, Knorr, and Franz in the front row eating popcorn screaming out......."tear em up Jesus......tear em up......damn dirty apostate bastards!"*
ROFLMAO!!!
Reminds me of a scene from the Roman Colisseum. Definately thumbs down!!
"happy are those concious of their spiritual need?
" do you still have a desire for spiritual things?
I stopped worrying about things that i'll never get an answer to before I die. When people ask me those big questions like:
How did we get here?
How was the world created?
I just shrug my shoulders. Why should I waste my limited time on this earth worrying about things that will not be decided in my lifetime. If i've adopted any form of siritualism or religion it would be called cantgivearatsassivism.
part 4 - who really introduced the sword of war?
peace is supposed to be a central feature of watchtower theology ?
a peaceful paradise earth ?
Another amazing post!! I've always disagreed with religions who try to portray Jehovah as a peaceful god. His actions certainly give lie to that theory.
I especially like the points you made about swords not having been invented at that point in man's history. keep up the good work!!
